Take off your hat; kick off your shoes.
I know you ain't goin' anywhere.
Run ˜round the town, singin' your blues.
I know you ain't goin' anywhere.

You've always been a good friend of mine,
But you're always sayin' farewell.
And the only time that you're satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing well.
Oh¦ Yeah¦ Wish!
Throw down your gun “ you might shoot yourself “
Or is that what you're tryin' to do?
Put up a fight you believe to be right
And someday the sun will shine through.
You've always got something to hide;
Something you just can't tell.
And the only time that you're satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishin' well.
Oh¦ Yeah¦
But I know what you're wishin' for:
Love in a peaceful world. Yeah¦
Love in a peaceful world. Oh, yeah¦
Love in a peaceful world.
Mmmmmmmm¦
Na na na na na na na-na¦
Na na na na na na na¦

You've always been a good friend of mine,
But you're always sayin' farewell.
And the only time that you're satisfied
Is with your feet in the wishing¦ well!
Oh! Yes! But, uh¦ Ow!
I wish you well¦
Oo-oo-ooh! The wishing well! Ow!
Everybody has a wish¦
Everybody has a dream. Yeah, yeah!
I wish you well¦ Ow!
Well, you dream¦ your own time¦
